Zhorno Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 I'm sending some side skirts but because of the length they want £25 any 1 know of others ... This was parcel force Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wasso Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 That's not a bad price to be fair. Due to the length of the skirt, some couriers may turn you down. Have a search via the following if you need to check other rates. www.myparceldelivery.com www.myhermes1.co.uk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OsakaBen Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 I use paisley freight as Ian said. Set price. And I've always found them to be reliable. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glrnet Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 Ditto Paisley ^ Very reasonable and reliable too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
14N Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 Sorry, should of also said, my post wasn't just a "here's a price", I've used Paisley before and never had any problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r37 Posted November 7, 2013 Share Posted November 7, 2013 without wanting to sound biased ive spent a fair while looking after around 1/4 of paisley freights UK shipping and wouldn't recommend them. Their prices are quite good but its for a reason, their customer service is shocking. They farm out most of the actual courier work to reputable firms so for the most part their delivery service is fine. Its just if it goes wrong thats the issue. If i was sending something id go on parcels2go and pick TNT/UPS or use the interlink service DPD now offer. DPD would be my best recommendation for private mail though.

WhackyWill Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 I use Parcel Monkey 48, always found them to be cheapest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ekona Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 DPD are the best courier firm bar none. For the end user, the tracking is utterly superb. Anyone who sends via MyHermes clearly has never received a parcel from them. Utter gash. Offered a choice, I'd rather pay extra for Parcelforce or DPD than I would use someone cheap.

Dave-350 Posted November 8, 2013 Share Posted November 8, 2013 ParcelMonkey Parcel2Go Both use @*!# firms though, DPD are the best courier by far... And I have used them all. Stay away from TNT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DPD were one of the worst companies outside of Herpes a few years back. Something has definitely happened as they're absolutely brilliant now.......to the point where I'm tempted to write to them to congratulate on not being 'totally useless' which is my general definition for 95% of any service providing company in the UK Edited November 8, 2013 by Ricey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
